Course Description: This is a beginning course in conversational German, which uses the natural method of learning: hear it, say it, absorb it. Topics are organized into concise, short lessons. The course includes a brief summary of grammar, as well as supplementary aids such as vocabulary helps and a common usage dictionary containing the most common words with their meanings illustrated in sentences. At the conclusion of the course, students should display sufficient conversational command of the language for common practical life situations.
